Prepare the pate in advance. Make the salad dressing & prepare the other ingredients while the pate cooks. Smear the blended pate on to the bread and assemble the sandwiches. If taking on the go, package the salad dressing in an individual container and toss with the spinach leaves just prior to eating.
There are pate lovers and pate haters. I am a lover. My husband is a hater. But, I may convert him, because apparently Liverwurst (aka poor man’s pate) was his first food as a baby when he swiped a scoop of it off the table and slurped it down happily. Our simple blend of mushrooms, onions & chicken livers made me swoon with joy. He tried it and claimed to ‘not hate it’. What amazes me about pate is how it is cheap and quick to make. Poor guy, marrying me means there may just be a lot more pate in his future.
The unique flavors of pate & marmalade play off of each other to create a most delightful sandwich. Since there are only four ingredients be sure to use the best you can find. Make a simple pate from scratch, buy it in a specialty grocer, or buy the “poor-man’s pate” of liverwurst. Similarly for the marmalade, winter is a great time to make or buy it fresh.
The dressing is simple and therefore best if using the highest quality ingredients. Freshly ground black pepper and a fruity extra-virgin olive oil will make this salad incredible as you can taste each flavor.
